In one corner of the picture scroll, a huge nine-tailed demon fox screamed from the sky and his nine long tails hung up like a snake. The Taoists who had invaded the territory and challenged his authority were painted on the cliff one by one.

A young little Taoist fell into a corner and the ink lines outlined his panicked facial expression. His face was full of snot and tears as he watched the demon he admired swallow his most respected Shifu, his beloved brothers, one by one.

The sharp teeth and the red blood flowing from his mouth made him frightened and terrified, but it carved an everlasting hatred in his heart.

The single-line figure stumbled and rolled down the cliff and escaped from the fox demon’s feet.

He was embarrassed, full of grief and anger, kneeling in the mountain and vowing to kill all the demons in the world.

Losing his Shifu and companions, the lonely little Taoist walked in the picture scroll. He didn’t know how many falls and injuries he suffered until he fell exhaustedly under a pear tree.

“Eh, what’s the matter with you?” 

Sitting on the pear tree was another little figure drawn and a yellow pear was thrown in the little man’s hand. 

“Are you hungry? I will give this pear to you.”

“Don’t worry about it. It’s autumn, the harvest season. The food is delicious, so you should be happy.”

“Can you stand up? Let me take you to my house. My wife cooks delicious food.”

The harvest season yielded the only friendship for the rest of his life.

The two little men became best friends.

Every few days, the little Taoist priest in the picture would always return to the hut, where his friends would wait to blanch two pots of wine, accompany him to talk all night long.

Only at this time, the murderous young Taoist priest could temporarily let go of the big stone in his heart and forget the exhaustion caused by the killing.

The picture composed of Qi moved faster. The little Taoist angered a powerful demon king. The little man ran from the mountains all the way, exiled in the big river and finally escaped, but he fell in the demon’s claws.

At that moment, his friend appeared in front of him and his body twisted and turned into a big fish, driving away the demon and saving his life.

“You turned out to be a demon,” the little Taoist stood up. His sword pointed far away at his only friend, shaking so much that he could barely hold the hilt.

He couldn’t believe his eyes. His best friend turned out to be one of the demons he hated.

“Well, I am a demon, but also your friend. Can’t people and demons be friends?”

The man turned his back to the sunset, smiled at him and stretched out his hand. But he dropped the hilt and fled.

Miaomiao11 Dao in front of the mural stretched out his hand and pressed the blue satin in front of his eyes.

The always steady fingers couldn’t stop shaking, “No, no forgiveness, no friends. There is only killing in my world. Killing is my only way.”

The sunset on the top of the mountain stopped. Without his summons, no one even dared to come in and hold a lamp, leaving the house dark.

But it was said that Yuan Xiang and his party left the city of Jingdu, crossed the Yellow River  and headed north.

Because they were worried, they walked in a hurry all the way after coming out of Xianle Palace. They got lost, so they had to stay in a courtyard along the way.

Zhou Deyun’s servant knocked on the courtyard door and the woman who answered the door opened it and shook her head repeatedly, “No, no, how could so many people stay here? I was scolded by the Master for nothing.”

When she was about to close the door, an arm blocked her and a young handsome man smiled at her with curving eyebrows, “I understand, but we are lost. There are only mountains around here, so we have nowhere to rest.”

The woman who had just quarreled with her husband and was sulking inexplicably felt that her mood had improved. She suddenly changed her expression and said with a smile, “Yes, it’s not easy for anyone to go out. Wait, I’ll go and tell the master.”

Hu Sanlang gracefully bowed, “Thank you ma’am.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. I, as a host have always been hospitable, so I can agree to it. Later, I will take you to the guest room and I will give you some hot water, so that you can relieve your fatigue,” the woman said then went in happily.

Wu Yuan crouched on Yuan Xiang’s shoulder, “Look, this is the fox race’s natural ability, the power of charm. It is especially useful against humans. It seems that it is not useless to let Sanlang come with us.”

They were quickly arranged into a comfortable guest room and Yuan Xiang had the opportunity to try to draw a new bond array.

She held a talisman pen and dipped a cinnabar on the ground and drew one.

“It turns out that the array will work if I shorten it.” Yuan Xiang looked at the array on the ground and touched her chin, “It took me so much time to try to figure it out, but he could see the problem at a glance, worthy of being a senior.”

“But Ah Xiang, do you really want to make such a contract with us?” Wu Yuan squatted aside and watched her draw the array.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t it good?”

“Of course it is very good for us.” Wu Yuan said, tilting his head, “But then you won’t be able to control the apostle in the future. What if you encounter a demon who doesn’t listen to your orders?”

Yuan Xiang scratched his little nose, “I am not like that Headmaster and those Taoists, who have to kill demons. Why do I need so many apostles?”
